Special Video Blog Series: The End of the Age of Globalisation

Published 29 January 2019

You might be asking why we haven’t shot the first in our special series of Video Blogs from Davos, given today we are discussing the “End of the Age of Globalisation”. Sadly our invite must have gotten lost in the post, although we would have been reticent to attend given the title of this year’s World Economic Forum was “Creating a Shared Future in a Fractured World”; ironic really given the chief culprits for that structure, namely central bankers, politicians and CEOs of all major companies were present. Anyway, we hope that you enjoy watching our views on what has happened to end the “golden age of globalisation” and what the implications are for the future.
